Jisung was staring at the ceiling, laying on his bed. He had skipped school for the day, knowing Chenle wouldn't probably show up, just like the day before. He was wondering whether he should show up at Chenle's or not for their daily study session. He was still slightly mad someone had left hickeys on the Chinese's skin, but he couldn't tell that to Chenle.
While he was meditating he heard soft sniffles coming from his brother's room. He silently walked towards the door and peeked in, as it wasn't locked. He saw Baekhyun, muffling his sobs with a pillow. Chanyeol's pillow.
'Baekhyun?'
The older flinched when he heard the vampire. He quickly wiped his tears and threw the pillow on the bed.
'Yeah?'
'Is there something wrong?' Jisung asked in a worried tone.
'No. Did you want anything?'
'Uhm... No, not really.'
Jisung left the room. He sucked at comforting people. What could he say? 'Get over him, you'll find someone better.' No. That was way too harsh. Jisung knew Baekhyun would have a hard time getting over his brother. He even doubted the older would find someone else.
The human was alone in Chanyeol's room once again. He walked around the room. Even though it had been a while since his death, the room remained practically untouched. None of them had dared to throw away Chanyeol's stuff.
He opened the closet and took one of Chanyeol's hoodies, they still smelt of him. He hugged the piece of clothing as a way to comfort himself. However, he couldn't hold the tears in anymore.
Baekhyun. You can't be like this forever... What would Chanyeol say if he saw you like this?
'Baekhyunnie~ Don't cry. At least you're alive. You have to be happy even if I'm not here, yeah? I'm always watching you. I know we'll meet again in another life.'
Baekhyun let the tears flow, burying his face in Chanyeol's hoodie and drowning in his aroma.
'Channie... I miss you...'
Chenle sat in the library alone, staring at Jisung's books. He was waiting for the younger to show up, which he didn't. He glanced at Jisung's answers, which strangely were all correct.
Does he become dumb when he's with me or what?
He waited until the time when their study session was supposed to end and left the library disappointed. He picked up his stuff and Jisung's and headed to his room.
He would ask Jisung what happened and give him back his phone the next day. They were done with the shop and he could go to school next day.
Kun had come back and congratulated for their job, the local looked amazing, with the walls painted pastel purple and all the limited edition perfumes classified in the fancy looking shelves.
'Mark, it was just a damn dream!'
'But what if it's true?! What if Johnny-'
'Can you fucking stop talking about him?!'
'Dongh-'
'You're always talking about him. Johnny this, Johnny that, where is Johnny? What happened to Johnny? What if Johnny blah blah blah? Is he the only person you care about?!'
'Why are you so bothered by me being worried about my fucking best friend?!'
'Because-'
Donghyuck didn't know what to respond. It was true, lately he'd been snapping at Mark every time the older mentioned Johnny.
'Because Mark, what about us? Do we not matter to you anymore? You only think of Johnny when me and the others are here, with you. Will you not appreciate us until we disappear?!'
Donghyuck was practically crying. Mark felt bad.
'Donghyuck... I'm sorry...'
'It's okay.' Donghyuck turned around and was about to leave when Mark gripped his wrist.
'Wait.'
'Hmm?'
'I'm sorry, I swear I'll stop talking about him. Just... don't be mad, yeah?'
Donghyuck didn't answer.
'Come on, Donghyuck... Are you not going to forgive me?'
Silence.
'Is there something else I don't know?'
'It's... nothing.'
'No, tell me.'
'Mark, let me go.'
'Not until you tell me.'
'Let me go!'
Donghyuck got fed up and snapped, pushing Mark away and running somewhere else. He didn't run for long, Mark ran faster than him and backhugged him to stop Donghyuck from running away.
'Hyuckie... What's wrong?'
The younger tensed up.
'I won't let you go until you tell me what's bothering you so much.'
'Fine! I like you!'
'W-what?'
'I like you. I have for a good few years. But you're too stupid to realise. I'm constantly trying to get your attention, but all you talk about is Johnny! I hate it! I hate that all you think of is Johnny and not me!'
'I-I'm sorry, I didn't know...'
'Thats because you're so fucking dense! Now you know it. Let me go.'
'Do-'
'LET ME FUCKING GO, YOU IDIOT!'
And with that, Donghyuck turned around and stabbed Mark's stomach, piercing through the vampire's skin with his nails. He pushed the older away after freeing himself from his grasp.
'H-hyuck- Wait... I-I like you too...'
'Huh?'
'You heard me. I like you too... I just didn't show it because I was sure you'd reject me...' Mark got up. 'You are constantly sending me mixed signals, you know? Last week we hooked up at Taeyong's, but the next day you were yelling at me for touching you. You're constantly insulting me but at the same time I see you blush every time I compliment you... how was I supposed to know you liked me?'
Donghyuck helped Mark get up, the wound was practically healed by now. He was speechless, he wasn't aware of how much of a dick he'd been to Mark until now.
'So... Can I ask you out or are you gonna slice my throat open if I do so?' Mark said jokingly as he coughed a bit of blood.
'Ask me out...' Donghyuck muttered. He was staring at the floor so that Mark couldn't see his red face.
'Lee Donghyuck, will you be my boyfriend?' Mark placed his index finger under the younger's chin, making him look at his face. 'I know you're blushing. No need to hide it.'
'Y-yes...'
'I didn't hear you~'
'I said yes!'
'Yes what?'
'Yes I'll be your boyfriend!'
Donghyuck covered his mouth as soon as he realised they were in a park and probably everyone around them had heard him. He smacked Mark's chest and hugged him immediately, hiding his face in embarrasment.
Mark cupped Donghyuck's cheeks softly and pecked his lips.
'Don't be embarrassed, baby~'
